To show us the fine points of installing a waterfall using a kit (from Aquascape Designs), Sunset test garden coordinator Bud Stuckey worked with experts to build one at our headquarters in Menlo Park.

The water garden took our five-person crew eight hours to install. A pond this size would cost about $8,000. Two first-timers could build the same thing for a third of the price, but it would take about four days of labor, plus a couple of hours of an electrician's time to bring power to the pump.
